Chapter 15 The Northern King's assault investigation of the camp(1/2)
Liu Chen handed over the training tasks of soldiers north of Zitong to Hu Ji and Zhang Zun, and set out towards Jiangyou with his troops.
However, Liu Chen's destination is not Jiangyou, but Deyang.
Therefore, Liu Chen arranged for Ma Miao to go first and asked him to bring Jiangyou guards to the vicinity of Deyang one day in advance for Liu Chen to inspect.
Liu Chen, who led an army of nearly a thousand people, naturally slowed down.
By the time he arrived near Deyang Pavilion, five days had passed.
Liu Chen did not enter the city, but instead set up a camp on the flat ground near Deyang Pavilion. Xi Ni, who went to explore the way, quickly reported it to him.
"King, there is a large camp more than ten miles northwest of Deyang Pavilion!"
"There are three small camps in the camp, each camp has twenty-six tents!"
Ma Miao should have brought three thousand people, and a small battalion should have thousands of people, so there should be about fifty people per tent.
The officer has a separate account, and there are other weapons and supplies.
"How about the camp? Are Tianluo, Wuluo, Xingma, and thorns ready?"
It is easy to understand that caltrops are similar to the net surrounding the military camp.
Wuluo, also known as Huluo, is a bamboo fence that protects castles or camps, and horses are wooden frames that block people and horses from passing through.
After hearing this, Xi Ni paused for a moment, then replied
"Yes, but not entirely. If I led the knights to rush to the camp, there would be no obstacle!"
That is, it's a careless thing, Liu Chen continued to ask
"How about the well stove? How about the storm?"
The Art of War once said, "If the military well has not been dug, you will not say thirst; if the military stove has not been opened, you will not say hungry."
The well and stove must be completed with a tent, while the turtle is a toilet. Zhuge Liang paid special attention to these details when he was in charge of the army.
Li Jing, the war god of the Tang Dynasty, strictly stipulated the requirements for military camp hygiene in the "Li Weigong Art of War" and required that each camp be dug a public toilet.
"Something is true, but soldiers still drown everywhere when they go to the toilet!"
It seems that Ma Miao’s management is not strict enough!
You should know that you will be beaten to shit and pee in the army!
"How about barriers? How about barriers?"
Both are fortifications at the gate of the military camp.
"There are tower guards, but it's relatively lax!"
I think so, Xi Ni came back, and Ma Miao didn’t send anyone here. It should be that he didn’t find Xi Ni!
In general, Ma Miao's camping was carried out according to Zhuge Liang's requirements, but it was not strictly done.
It seems that it is a negligent management issue. Seeing this, Liu Chen directly summoned Li Gao and Wang Yun.
Since the last time the group of thieves were wiped out, the two have been promoted to goalkeepers by Liu Chen. Together with Li Yi, the three of them are the highest-ranking generals around Liu Chen.
After Xi Ni talked about the situation, Liu Chen did not say his own thoughts, but asked everyone's opinions.
"Now I want to revive the Jiangyou garrison, what should I do?"
Goalkeeper Wang Yun is the first to export as a veteran military member
"Surve directly into Ma Miao's camp, and hold Ma Miao's head to blame the army!"
Just asking for guilt? It seems inappropriate!
Li Gao also thought it was inappropriate, so he suggested
"The king may be able to come here alone and then take him to patrol the camp!"
Li Gao's suggestions were quite a bit favorable to Liu Chen, but they didn't seem to be fierce enough. After all, we should teach Ma Miao's side a lesson and let them take it seriously!
At this time, Li Yi also saw Liu Chen's face and said
"It's better to conduct a surprise inspection and go straight to the main camp!"
"In this way, I will take him to patrol the camp!"
Li Yi's idea coincided with Liu Chen, but he still didn't make a decision and continued to ask
"Do you have any other suggestions?"
After asking around, there was no better thing than these three people, so Liu Chen said directly
"Okay, let's follow Yun Gang's plan!"
"Zhang Hong, Zhang Heng and the tiger girl guard the camp together!"
"Public honor, Ji Chong holds my king's flag, Yun Gang follows me and heads towards Ma Miao's camp!"
More than fifty riders headed towards Ma Miao Camp, and the road was unobstructed!
However, Liu Chen still noticed the movements among the grass, and Li Gao also noticed it.
In an instant, Li Gao had already bent his bow and stringed. Liu Chen thought it was not good, so he quickly pulled the horse and hovered.
"Ji Chong stopped!"
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Liu Chen gave a reminder
The bow shot like a meteor fell at the feet of a soldier. The tail of the arrow trembled continuously, but the soldier was so frightened that he could not get up.
Li Gao also knew that he had made a mistake, so he quickly led several people to dismount and helped the frightened soldier up.
The soldiers finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Li Gao was wearing the armor of friendly troops and the flag of the Han Dynasty.
"I was so scared that I thought there were thieves near Deyang!"
Just as Li Gao was about to ask, another person walked out of the forest.
"Who are you? How could it appear here?"
Li Gao explained at Liu Chen's gesture
"My name is Li Gao, and I am the goalkeeper of the Beidi King!"
Hearing this, the person hiding in the dark walked out of the jungle. When Li Gao saw him holding a bow and arrow, he knew that he was aiming at him just now.
It seems that the other party should be a scout, with a similar figure to Li Gao, but he should be a small leader!
Sure enough, he quickly saluted when he saw Liu Chen.
"After a certain Jiangyou Guardian, Yang Cang, is under the command of Ma Miao, to pay homage to the King of Northern Earth!"
At this time, another soldier also reacted and quickly saluted.
Liu Chen nodded and asked
"Did Ma Miao ask you to come out and investigate the situation?"
"It's Yang Du..."
The soldier was about to speak, but was interrupted by Yang Cang
"General Ma has arrived here yesterday, so he arranged for me to investigate!"
Liu Chen knew in his heart that Yang Cang was hiding his mistakes for his boss!
However, Liu Chen did not break his lie. It seems that there are people in the army who support Ma Miao!
Seeing that Yang Cang was about to speak, Liu Chen said decisively
"I understand, then Uncle Yang will guide me!"
Yang Cang also wanted his subordinates to repay Ma Miao, but Liu Chen ordered first, so he had to lead the way with his subordinates.
In the blink of an eye, more than fifty riders arrived in front of Ma Miao camp.
When Liu Chen saw it, he was indeed as Xi Ni said.
‘If you do defense, but if you don’t do it properly, you can rush into the camp in an instant!’
After Li Gao announced his name, the soldiers did not inform Ma Miao, but let him in directly!
The main general's tent was easy to find, and Liu Chen rode for more than fifty riders and rushed directly to Ma Miao!
The sound of rumbling on the ground sounded, and Ma Miao's tent did not respond at all! Liu Chen suspected that he was still sleeping!
But after he entered Ma Miao's tent, he saw an amazing scene.
Ma Miao is actually reading a military book!
Seeing Liu Chen coming in, Ma Miao's eyes were about to fall to the ground.
"Bei, Beidi King, why are you here?"
Liu Chen never dreamed that Ma Miao had a studious side.
‘Is it just a temporary show?’
But he didn't care whether Ma Miao was acting or not, and asked directly
